I am sure that everyone on my flist (especially the other moms) will be relieved to hear that I got in touch with the guidance counselor at T's school, and she was able to tell me that he has been "matched" with the school I wanted. So yay, they wanted him, I don't have to get them to take him out of pity or anything ( Read more... )

Yay! Major sigh of relief!

shouldn't you be in bed? I know I should.

I got the letter too! So we're all set.

Paper confirmation is always good.

Just got back from AC's graduation ceremony, it was quite cool... and then we went out for dinner -thai-. Perry was totally horrified by it, AC loves it, and Linnea is happy as long as we feed her plenty of spring rolls and white rice.

Tom only likes spring rolls and white rice. Sometimes he will eat a shrimp.

The thing about the letter is it is an OFFICIAL DOCUMENT and has a reply form, which you need to return to the school to tell them you are accepting the slot. And the deadline is Tuesday.

Hence the relief.

In reality, you know, this could all be handled quite calmly but I admit to getting swept up in the hysteria.

The thing is... until it's a REAL crisis, and the letter needs to be in Tuesday and you don't have it Monday at 5PM... you can panic and it won't affect the outcome. I'm sure that if it had become a real crisis (Monday at 5PM hee!), you'd have figured it all out.
